204 Ruger loads?

WOA Varmint Upper liked 39 Sierra, 40 VMax and 36 too, but those 39 and 40s held their speed so much better out past 200 yards that I didn’t look at the lighter ones again. Easy to tune with RE 10X, CFE 223, H335, 4895, etc.

I would take a look at the Sierra 39 and 40 VMax for their downrange performance. They may not leave the muzzle as fast, but they are holding speed so much better that they are worth the look.
